Keenan Allen is PFWA’s NFL Comeback Player of the Year, and another award is likely on the way

Keenan Allen proved to the world that he is one of the most dangerous wide receivers in the league when healthy.

After tearing his ACL and missing all but one game (one half) last season, the 2013 third-round pick came back strong and silenced all his critics, putting up the best numbers of his young career. Allen finished third in receiving yards (1,393), fourth in receptions (102) and fourth in yards per game (87.1). His six receiving touchdowns were the most since his rookie year.

Not only that, but the 25-year-old Allen finished with a league-high 36 receptions for 552 yards on third down, per ESPN’s Eric Williams.
